I love it everytime and whats even better is that it annoys other supporters aswell!

He's also picking the Dees this friday night as he has an emotional attachment still.

Can't love the bloke even more! I hope when we win the flag he is up their with celebrating hard with his demon scarve.

Love Roosy and will be forever greatful for him and Peter Jackson saving this now proud strong club.

Likes the smell of his own farts a bit does, Roosy.

But he's completely entitled and justified to be doing that.

If we win the flag this year I'd like to see roosy present it given the work he's put in to get us there. 

Realistically though how good would it be to

see the rev with the cup?

It would be a bold move for it to be anyone other than Barassi, but Roos would deserve it.

He was the architect,  Goodwin is the builder.

Both those men are incredibly invested in this playing group.

"...Friday night will be like Roos watching his sons, Dylan and Tyler, playing against each other...When you go to any footy club you make emotional attachments,” Roos said. ... Now I’m very attached to Melbourne. The lack of success is part of it and I’m sympathetic to their plight. It’s exciting for Melbourne, they’ve been kicked for so long. I’m happy for Jack Watts and Nathan Jones and Max Gawn. I’m going for the Demons.” 

I think he bleeds red and blue!:roos::wub:

The reason farts smell is so that deaf people don't miss out.   Word.

Just business.
If we won the flag Eddie would would offer him 3million a season.
And Roosy knows it.

Roosy on triple me yesterday said he was invited to a Melbourne function and spoke highly of Goody, peter Jackson and Glen Bartlett. He loves the Dee"s and will be red and blue for life, has helped our club and i for one can't thank him enough.

I hated it with Sydney and I hate it with Melbourne.

I've basically accepted that they're all pretty bloody biased. I'm just glad someone's biased FOR us. It's a nice change.

Spot on. I don't understand the under current of anti Roos sentiment coming through some posts on here. 

Without Roos, P. The MFC would be a piece of rotting carcas by now....

I guess the only answer is to win three premiership cups then...

Historically speaking, every time the Doggies have won a flag the MFC has won the next three.

Love Roos. But I'd guess the emotional attachment is overshadowed by the professional attachment. His legacy and all that. He and Jackson are the architects, and credit will be due, but it's only human to desire that you're contribution won't be forgotten.

If Roosy bleeds red and blue now, good on him.

He took on a basket case and got us ready to be a contender, so I can only be forever grateful. 

Plus I've a couple of Swans supporting mates who'll hate to hear he's ours now... :)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
